Nice:
It's amazing to see that you had the drive to make an app just for your fellow SGS4G users.
Thanks Alot FB.

I just got a Samsung Galaxy S 4G (SGH-T959V).
I went through a factory-wipe, update to 2.3.6, root, custom kernel, CM7 install, and now on CM9. It seems to work fine. Except I'm on AT&T!
I just purchased your app. I will try it out in a few hours. If it works, I'll leave a positive review here and on the Play store.

Thank you, but if you're already using your SGH-T959V successfully on AT&T it means that your phone is already unlocked and don't need to attempt to unlock again.

I was *not* using it on AT&T, that is why I bought your app.
The phone was locked to T-Mobile. When I put in my AT&T SIM, it asked for a SIM PIN or something.
With the T-Mobile SIM inserted, I ran your app, wrote down the number, put my AT&T SIM in, typed in the number, then it said "Network Unlocked" (or something like that).
Does this mean the device is unlocked for ANY GSM network (such as Bell or Rogers), or was it telling me that it was unlocked for just the AT&T SIM?

It should work with any compatible GSM network that uses a full-sized SIM card.

Hi, quick question about your App.
There will be soon the SGS4G Google Edition. It will be available only for AT&T and T-Mobile.
I'm from Belgium and I planned to buy the phone during my holidays in the U.S.
Do you think your app will work in this case and unlock the carrier ?
Regards.

Whoever decided to name the phone the Galaxy S 4G picked a bad name. The phone this app is designed for came out in 2011 (SGH-T959V or SGH-T959W), so it will not work on the new 2013 Galaxy S 4.

Will it work on non rooted?

If I rename your file in update.zip will it unlock also a not rooted device?
I tried some other files but unsuccessfully as not signed.
Can I ask which ROM do you suggest for this t959 4g and if it support front camera?
I used to convert avi files from my cheap camera to latest space conscious mp4 h264 on the gt i9000 with official ROM CM10.1 rc5 but often with big files it just slow down, freeze and restart, which parameters of CPU and RAM should I fine tune to achieve video transcoding done? (actually Roman 10 1.5.6)

This is a native android application available from Google Play, not a flashable zip file.
Are you sure you're using an SGH-T959V or SGH-T959W

idexample said:
Yes it is the 959 but I made the example with my old gt i9000 as it is similar in RAM and spec.
You offered aside your Google Play apk also a zip file in your other thread but I was asking how can I flash it if not rooted ask for zip signature.
About the conversion of videos now I have better results with Mackay ROM, must install yet the latest 2.11.4.

Good luck!

As you work from long time on this device, can I ask you after stock gingerbread what you suggest to put on please?
For non bricked device I will need root and custom recovery, cwm TWRP or other, in other posts I read about Amonra....

Thanks and question
Hello,
And thanks for this amazing app. But suddenly it doesnt works for me. I´ll explain.
I´ve purchased one SGH-T959V from Tmobile from ebay. I´ve done the "return to stock rom", root and installed the busybox. When I´ve purchased your app, it downloads but apperas an error message:
Couldnt install on USB storage or SD card.
I´ve tried to install another apps, and they´re installed succesfully.
Could you tell me what can I try?

Why no 4.4.2 yet?

Hiya.
Recently bought a genuine UK SIM-free/unlocked HTC One (M7) online. Noticed that the Android OS is still stuck to 4.3.
I thought Android 4.4.2 is now available to UK customers for unlocked handsets? And what are the improvements to the phone?
Please advice. Thanks.

Use this app to check your CID: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tritonsoft.cidgetter
What CID does it say? For UK unbranded, unlocked handsets it's HTC__001. I got the update just fine.

My CID is : VODAP001. That seems to suggest it is originally a Vodaphone-locked device but it has been unlocked since.

Same here, I'm from Croatia and have T-Mobile De version, but still can't update.
I've contacted HTC and they removed 4.4.2. update in some places. They'll roll it out again later, probably with Sense 6. We'll have to be patient until then
---------- Post added at 11:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 PM ----------
But still, call HTC support for UK and let them check your phone (by IMEI) and tell you if you have the "good" version

Reason why both of you don't have the update yet is because your CID and software is locked to the previous carrier, meaning it's up to them to release the update, not HTC.
This will wipe your phone, but it will unbrand your phone if you follow it correctly: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358738
This basically flashes the unbranded version of the ROM and changing the CID to one that HTC does support, so you'll get updates directly from HTC instead of the carrier.

Sorry but right now i'm not prepared to unbrand the phone as it seems to me its too much of a long & winding process. Seeing the link seems too technical for me.
What i have done instead is ring HTC. Gave them the serial number of the phone and they told me that it IS Vodafone-branded phone. They adviced me to contact Vodafone which i did. The Vodafone support person doesn't seem to have a clue to what i'm saying and seems not familiar to how updates are released. He kept on insisting (based on the circumstances i have presented to him|) that Vodafone has nothing to do with updates. Person sounded stupid really.
I tried a Three and an EE SIM card on the One M7 and it works. So far no updates yet.
I can also confirm that being an unlocked phone it has NO Vodafone branding or logo or apps or bloatware on the phone itself.
So, i'm stuck with a year old phone with a old-gen Android OS.
So...what's next please?

According to this, every KitKat with Sense 5.5 for One is out. But as I said, some carriers removed the update. Also, some carriers have already released Sense 6. I hope that we'll see direct update to Sense 6 in a month or two

Sorry but the ,link you have given me wasn't very helpful as i'm living in the UK.
Still, i feel not confident with what information/advice HTC and Vodafone has given me as i feel i have been passed around.

I have explained many times that my phone is unlocked & SIM free albeit being Vodafone-branded.
So, it still doesn't answer my question: why no Android 4.4.2 for my phone?

I've read an article that One is getting Sense 6 update today! (for unlocked devices). My is branded to T-Mobile, but I hope that I'll get the update until the end of the month

Because the software is still modified slightly by Vodafone. You may have the phone network unlocked but it doesn't mean it's software unbranded. It's still up to Vodafone to update it. To be honest, this sounds more like a second hand handset instead, perhaps the original owner got it for free from an upgrade, unlocked it, and then sold it on as he was probably using another phone.
Vodafone customer support won't know anything, they're not taught anything technical, only the network side of things, which is why they can't answer you.
Honestly, you should just unlock and S-OFF the phone, and change it to a proper unbranded model if you want to get the latest updates from HTC.

But why should i get the phone unlocked as its already unlocked in the first place as i'm able to put an SIM on it?
And what do you mean by S-OFF? Is that term called "debranding?

When I mean unlock, I mean bootloader unlocking, which is different from network unlocking and allows you to flash other ROMs.
S-OFF allows you to change the CID, which is needed if you want to receive updates for another version of the HTC One, such as the unbranded version.

I have four years of owning and using an Android phone. Never been a developer or have IT skills or been into rooting phones. I consider myself somewhere above an intermediate user and under expert level.
So, it easy to unlock the bootloader and S-OFF my HTC One M7?
WIll it almost guarantee me i'll still be able to receive the Android 4.4.2 update and (perhaps) beyond?

I've rooted and s-off every phone, but few months after purchase, when I got bored with stock.
If you are doing this for the first time, even though you have good tutorials, it still won't be easy for you. I don't know anything about rooting M7 because I have it for a week, but it probably isn't so easy as it looks like, and it will take you few hours to do it (maybe days if you screw something).
If you unbrand your phone than yes, you will definitely be able to update to 4.4.2. But you need to know that if you do that, you will void your warranty for an almost new phone.
My recommendation: since I've seen that Sense 6 is already out for some carriers in US, it will probably be available in the Europe soon. So be patient and wait for a few weeks, and you'll probably receive direct update to 4.4.2 and Sense 6.

Here's the UK site: http://www.htc.com/uk/go/htc-software-updates/

4.19.161.10 was released in Feb
Maybe if you search you can find the OTA file somewhere on the net and apply it manually, or check with vodafone, why you're not receiving it.
Cheers

I just want to inform you that I've received 4.4.2 update today. But Sense 5.5, not 6.

TUT flash any firmware into your Sprint HTC One and unlock the sim card.

1/ back to stock, reroot, TWRP, read how to sim unlock the Sprint HTC 10 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-one-m9/general/nv-unlock-sim-t3314755
2/ download Viper10 2.5.0 (or any similar rom based on 1.80) inside Aroma, YOU MUST CHOOSE CARRIER IS SPRINT
3/ reboot the phone, dial ##3424# to open DM mode on (just check)
4/ download the firmware you want to flash, open the zip file, edit android-info.txt to match your CID and MID (don't change your phone MID)
5/ DELETE RADIO.IMG
6/ flash the edited firmware
7/ reboot into download mode, check your radio (should be [email protected]), your firmware version,
8 reboot phone, dial ##3424# to open DM mode on (if you can, congratulation)
9/ unlock your simcard again
10/ flash any rom match your firmware.
11/ enjoy

Can anyone verify this? Not to be doubtful but I'm ever so slightly skeptical.
Further, do I have to reunlock my SIM if I am to just use Sprint service?

If you've any trouble, U can back to original RUU. No step can brick your phone.
Of course, after flashing new firmware not provided by Sprint, your phone will be sim locked. I only provide the way to keep the MID, Radio and turn on DM mode to reunlock the phone.
If U're using sprint service, U must choose carrier as Sprint inside Aroma. I don't have sprint sim card so can't verify if you have to reunlock again

It isn't the first time I mod the firmware like this. In fact, HTC 10 can't flash the radio. The only way to flash radio is put it inside the firmware. I figured out it and try to keep the original radio.
The next trouble is trying to reunlock the sim card and ##diag# only active with sprint service right ? so I keep the sprint service.
When U keep the sprint service and original radio, u don't have to reunlock again. But I can't verify it because I'm no longer live in US.
Just back up anything u need because It the new 1.95.401.3 can format your phone. 1.90.401.3 was fine.

@Captain_Throwback do you think this'll work or I will end up with a brick?
I'd like to try and see if CM13 is bootable after converting my phone to pmeuhl, but I'm a bit hesitant to try this.

I have no point of reference for this, as I've never had a Sprint 10. It shouldn't brick anything, if the firmware is all compatible, but I don't know for sure.

Does anyone have the latest Sprint radio IMG file? Thanks in advance!

I can confirm that this works! I took a brand new Sprint HTC 10. Unlocked bootloader. Flash TWRP and flash superuser. S-OFF using Sunshine. SIM unlocked it with the NV method (I'm on AT&T). Changed the CID to SuperCID (11111111). Downloaded the latest 1.96.617.2 firmware for unlocked/developer model. Removed the radio.img from the ZIP. Then flashed the ZIP. The Sprint radio is preserved and my SIM unlock was also preserved. Then I just flashed LeeDroid ROM and off I go.

i recently ordered xz1 c from taiwan, got today i am from india and using jio as my primary number, any one help me to work jio volte on this phone, there is option to enable volte on mobile network settings but volte is not working, reliance jio works on band 3,5 and 40 and is a 4g ony network doesn't have 2g/3g.i heard on us firmware t mobile volte is working but fingerprint is not, I am not caring about fingerprint scanner, if i flash the us version volte work ? which firmware part has network based settings? here in india xz1 dual has jio volte working, as there is no big differences between xz1 and xz1 c, if i flash specific firmware part from xz1 dual to my xz1 c does jio volte work? but the main thing is i dont know which firmware part i have to flash, any one please guide me solve this be helpful

VOLTE is enabled here in the UK, so pretty sure a UK build will work for you.
You will need ADB drivers for the phone and beware if you've used your laptop/workstation for another model of phone as sometime this can interfere.
Start with Xperiafirm and download the most recent firmware build, which as I type is UK customised. Sticking to customised build avoids all the bloatware that goes with branded builds.
Download newflasher and unpack it into the same folder as the firmware.
Delete userdataXXX.sin (this preserves the data partition during the flash)
Turn off phone, plug it in, start newflasher, type 'n' to the first two questions.
This should get you the latest build phone with your data intact

problem solved

Hey,
Can you please let me know the process? I have ordered xz1c from US. I suppose it won't be having fingerprint working.
As others mentioned, UK firmware will give fingerprint but along with that I'd like to use Jio's VoLTE.
Please let me know the process. Also, may I know after doing that, will I miss on OTA updates?

Download Taiwanese firmware for xz1c and download Indian xz1 firmware, take OEM.sin from Indian xz1 firmware and replac oem. Sin in xz1c Taiwanese firmware and flash the modified Taiwanese xz1c firmware

1 more quick question..
After doing that,will I miss on OTA updates? Also why Taiwanese firmware? Any difference between Taiwanese and UK firmware?
I'm literally new to this flashing thing.. Can you please let me know the process of doing this? Or if you can refer me some link/thread of any guide for this.
Thank you so much.

Hey did the same method work for you on Android Pie 9.0? I tried oem sin from indian xz1 dual with customized thailand firmware. VoLTE switch is available in settings but VoLTE icon doesn't appear in the status bar and calls don't work

The same thing happened with me but I somehow got it to work

Did you flash just one sin file?
Was your bootloader locked?
Did you root your xz1c after?

Pl help to work Jio VOLTE on XZ 2 Compact
Hello,
I bought XZ 2 Compact from UAE but it dosnt support VOLTE from JIO. Signal displayed is LTE+ but cant make calls or receive calls. Even got the sms from Jio to update internet settings. I checked your earlier email on XZ1 Compact. Hows its working on it long term and is it getting regularly updated to a new firmware OTA.
Thanks..

Have you thought of posting your question on the XZ2 Compact thread?
That said there's no reason why you couldn't flash a version of firmware that supports VoLTE. yourself.
Xperiafirm will get you the up to date firmware, I would go for CE1 customised
Put Newflasher in the same folder as the downloaded firmware, remove Userdataxxx.sin and files ending in .ta to keep your data partition intact. Start Newflasher.exe and follow instructions.
You might need the Sony ADB drivers

Many thanks for your kind message and wish you a very happy new year.
I didn't posted it on XZ2 Compact thread, sorry for that. Actually I am novice and haven't flashed a mobile before. Moreover I am not able to find userdataxxx.sin and .ta files and honestly don't know where to look for them. Kindly please help. Thanks.

Thanks a lot. I first flashed xz2 dual indian firmware oem sin file with malasian 47.2.A.4.41 That soft bricked my device. Then I flashed xz1 dual indian firmware oem sin file with the same, now volte is working with reliance jio.

I used three FW-versions from XperiFirm and none of them enabled the VoLTE-setting on my XZ1c. Which one should I use to obtain the setting?

Is there a way to use Reliance Jio VoLTE on lineageOS 19.0, or 18.1 for that matter? I know flashing carrier MBN files works the trick for LG devices. Has anybody figured it out for xperias from 2017 or later? If it is available for any other xperia, I am happy to test it on lilac G8441.

VoLTE, VoWIFI, 5G - carrier settings by Sony

Hi all,
Support of Sony doesn't have any idea, how it works....:
I bought a EU-device and use it in Switzerland. Unfortunately, they didn't integrate the Swiss carrier settings. Due to this, I don't have VoLTE, VoWifi (Wifi calling) and 5G.
I contacted Sony by phone and they told me that the device seems to have defect, that's why it doesn't work. So I wrote an e-mail to Sony support and they answered that the hardware is only capable to have these functions for the countries it is build for. My reply was that this is an EU-Version, so the hardware isn't the problem, they just need to add the carrier settings and if they know, when they will add them. Answer of the support: No, it is the hardware.
It is really frustrating with Sony. They have build such a nice device, but with this support, they shoulnd't be suprised about falling sales.
I was thinking of open the bootloader with Magisk and try to add the settings by myself. But first, I have never done this and I am not sure yet, what I have to do exaclty (step by step). Second, I loose the guarantee. And third, I am not sure if banking apps still work afterwards.
I really love this device, but I am a little frustrated about Sony.
If you have an idea, how I can solve this problem, you would make me happy

Flash firmware with Volte support, that's all.

I tried this already (several different localizations), bitit didnt help. The problem is, that Swiss providers didn't integrate their settings into Googles carrier services, but into another database for manufacturers. Unfortunately, Sony didn't do that on the Xperia 1 ii (even if they did it on past Xperias).
But I am most frustrated, that their customer care blame it on the hardware, but it's a software problem. Even after explaining, they don't wanna check it with a specialist. So trumping something, which isn't true.

Maybe you should contact your provider. Unlocking bootloader won't help.

According to Swisscom, everything is ready and the system is waiting for the device to register in IMS. But as the mobil doesn't have the carrier datas, it probably can't do it.
So I am back at the point, where the mobile needs the settings implemented for Swisscom...

We need to wait for flash firmware with Volte support, that's all.
For now FlashTool is not supporting our device.
Later just flash US frimware you will loose double sim but you will get VoLTE and WiFi calling. I did that on Xperia 1. It was easy and satisfy choice

I have an XQ-AT51 and also tried the UK-version, which support VoLTE/VoWifi. But as mentioned, the carrier settings of Swiss providers are missing.

I really don't know if it can help, but, have you already tried this way? here

The mentioned switch in this post is greyed out on my phone and my phone is also not IMS-registered (even my provider is offering it - I have also a second SIM for the same number with an Xperia 10 Plus with VoLTE and VoWifi). So I am pretty sure, it is only about integrating providers/carriers settings. But as Sonys customer care doesn't care about it (only this sentence shows that something is wrong there) and they don't want to check it internally with an xpert on VoLTE/VoWifi, it is frustrating.

Hey PlatinCH, any news? Did you manage to get VoLTE/VoWifi working?
That's the only thing holding me back from buying it

Yes it is quite confusing for sony, i used to flash xz premium and xperia 1 with SEA firmware on my HK device and both able to use VOLTE and VOWIFI in Thailand. So i just wait for SEA firmware to release for Xperia 1 II and i flash it over to my Xperia 1 II (HK) last night. This is quite problem the volte button is there but not work, as well noticed that IMS is not registered although it trigger on but greyed out. I think pproblem is with Sony.
Anyhow i recommend to use New Flasher now as it support Xperia 1 II, and i am contributor to the dev since Xz Premium day so the dev is very updated and quick respond and it is simple and easy to use.

Question for the OP. Have a checked the modem config files to see if your carrier is listed in there? Also have you checked to see what modem config file your phone is currently using? Just type in *#*#service#*#* and go to service info, then choose software info. Your modem config will be listed at the bottom.

Quite sure it's listed there,
This phone will always select ROW Commercial config.
Don't know if this a bug or a feature from Sony

has anyone found a solutuion for wifi calling?

normally you just need to flash your country. if you live in uk then flash uk. it used to always work previously, but in xperia 1 iii to make cross flash it wont be always work and you will lose ability to OTA. but if not cross flash and your model is the same model number in your country volte and 5g will work, still OTA is not working anyhow you need to flash update manually everytime

If you are flashing the firmware for.your region and volte doesn't work then you won't have much luck flashing different region firmware. However if you want try flashing SEA firmware if it's only compatible with your model
